worshiped the sun. ---One
of the gates on the big ziggurat for Marduk, or the god Bel, is the E-Saggila
with six gates of which one of them is “the Gate of the Rising Sun”. ---Source:
---“The ziggurat occupied but a small part of the temple area. a cuneiform
tablet which describes the great temple of Bel-Merodach at Babylon. ---The latter
was called Ê-Saggila, “the house of the exalted head”; ---The visitor
to the temple first entered the “Great” or Outer Court. ---It was 900
feet in breadth, and more than 1150 in length. ---At Babylon a
second court opened out of the first, devoted to the worship of the goddesses
Istar and Zamâmâ. ---Six gates
pierced the walls—the Grand Gate, the Gate of the Rising Sun, the Great Gate,
the Gate of the Colossi, the Gate of the Canal, and the Gate of the Tower-view.” https://www.giffordlectures.org/books/religions-ancient-egypt-and-babylonia/lecture-9-ritual-temple ---In
Sumerian language, E means house. E.GAL means “big house” or palace. ---So
from early times, just like the Egyptians, Babylon also focused on the Sun. ---All
pagan religions around Israel and everywhere focused on the worship of the Sun. ---Are
people standing on the Eastern coast on New Year to see the rising sun that
year? ---It
is sun-cult. Sun Worship. Why? New Year is from “evening to evening” so when
the sun went down in the West nearly 12 hours before, the New Year was already
there! ---Next
time you think about the timing of the New Year, consider your actions. Actions
plays a part on our psychic and cognitive thinking. That plays a part on our
whole life and lifestyle. ---And
that is what happened to Constantine the so-called Christian emperor. In 321 he
made an Edict that shops should be closed on Sundays. ---I
have a coin of Constantine which shows his hair like the rising sun and in his
hand he is holding the earth. ---For
those who do not know, SOL is the Latin word for Sun. ---Between
312-317 one can see the coins of Constantine including the SOL or sun. Source: https://www.wildwinds.com/coins/ric/constantine/i.html ---His
head is radiating like the sun. ---He
favored Jupiter and other solar stars too. But the sun is featured on these
coins. Did he not so-called convert in 312 on the Milan Bridge? ---I
do not know how Constantine got converted with Christ and the SOL or sun? ---Error
is always mixed with truth. ---So
is your church insisting that you worship on Sunday and not Saturday? ---The
day of the Latin SOL? ---You
need to find the right church. Pagans focused on the sun. You do not want to do
the same. Right? ---Smartphone.
